Do not use terms like "Republic of Finland" when simply Finland is sufficient. Longer formal names for various countries are justifiable in cases like USA, USSR or DPRK type cases, or in cases where it's important and relevant to point out the changed governal status of such country. Finland has always been republic since its independence and thus its irrelevant nit-picking to mention it as a "Republic of Finland". This applies in all real-life drawings in all scales presented in here. In AU projects you can call what ever country in what ever names.
